Blaze: Chapter 43

As the young (unmarried) couple spend four days trekking to the land of Hazard's people, Hazard spend most of his time brooding over what to do about his engagement to his wife's younger sister, HfH (Hot for Hazard, incase you forgot) Gurl. When they finally reach his lodge amongst his people, Hazard is WIPED from having not slept for a month and having carried Blaze's more and more pregnant ass across the Montana wild. Hazard is hoping for some serious snooze time when he finds that HfH Gurl is waiting patiently outside his hut. Hazard PLEADS with Blaze to keep her cool and just let him handle this later cause oh god I'm sooooooooooo sleepy and Blaze consents, seeing how very very tired her big strong man is. They talk about how they would fight for each other and blah blah blah goo goo ick. He takes Blaze inside the hut and walks with HfH gurl back to father, Bold Ax. He returns his bride-to-be, offers Bold Ax all of his ponies (see: LOTS AND LOTS OF MONIES) and apologizes for his lack of diplomatic abilities and leaves. Bold Ax accepts his offer and Hazard returns to Blaze GETTING OFF SCOTT FREE. WHY did they even put the part in there about HfH Gurl? It was and ENTIRE CHARACTER SUBPLOT that went NOWHERE. Weak.

Hazard returns to Blaze and tells her she cost 300 ponies. Blaze likes being the center of attention and wants to bang. Hazard ask for at least one hour of sleep before doing the humpty hump and Blaze agrees.

Blaze: Chapter 42

Hazard and Blaze ride into a collection of rocks that Hazard knows from all his Indian scouting days. He sets Blaze carefully in the shade and surveys the land below. He spots four riders following their trail. Hazard decides his best idea is to face them from the rocks and he asks Blaze if she knows how to shoot. Blaze says she does, kinda, and Hazard giver her a rifle and says he'll be back soon. Blaze: Don't you mean IF you come back. Hazard: WHEN I come back. I promise. I'm not quite sure HOW Hazard has the ability to see the future and act so damn confident but what do I know? I've never written a romance novel!

Hazard sets a trap by putting one horse in the field running along the creek (convenient) and the other horse he snags the bridle in a tree, so i looks like he got stuck there. Hazard hopes his attention to detail will attract the trackers close enough so he can get a clean shot. Isn't he clever! He heads back into the rock, takes the rifle from Blaze and settles in to wait. Eventually he sees the trackers coming up the creek bed, two he recognizes as this dude from this thing who is super deadly and the other dude is from this other thing and he is also super deadly. There are more detailed descriptions in the book, but since these men are due to be dead soon (What?! That's not a spoiler! You can't tell me you didn't see that coming!) I don't see any reason to go through a lengthy description. So Hazard shoots both of them with one shot (HOW DOES HE DO THAT? I mean... all they say is he fires a shot and two men fall down. What the hell?! I didn't even know Hazard was PLANNING on doing such a thing until he did it! I can't decide if this is sneaky or poor set up on the authors part.) and then goes down into the creek bed to flush the other two dudes out (the less deadly ones).

Hazard flushes out the two other dudes by jumping into the creek bed and starts to fight them. Blaze, freaking out but keeping her shit together, shoots one from the rocks (WITHOUT HITTING HAZARD WHICH IS AMAZING) and Hazard shoots the other. Hazard confirms the dudes are dead (Yup. They're dead.) and goes back to the rocks and Blaze. They coo at each other and make starry eyed looks at each other a bunch. Blaze and Hazard both think about the INSURMOUNTABLE ODDS AGAINST THEM, but decide its best not to talk about because, hey, we just lived through that shit! They saddle back up and start to ride into the territory, thinking that they've got problems, but it'll be okay, because we're TOGETHER (gag).

Blaze: Chapter 41

Hazard wakes, bathes in the stream (cause remember... thats what REAL native americans DO cause they're VERY CLEAN PEOPLE NO REALLY I READ IT IN THIS BOOK SOMEWHERE) and chit chats with Lydia. She reminds Hazard not to push Blaze TOO HARD cause she's just a wee slip of a thing and its gonna be tough but I think you two will make it. Hazard hopes to out-run Fancy Yancy, but realizes he will have to kill the fucker eventually. Lydia tells him to focus on Blaze and the baby, not killing and maiming.

Blaze and Hazard leave Lydia's and set off for Hazard's people. Hazard buys a stage coach, drivers and some horses in the next town, easy as pie, and since AUTHORITY DRIPS FROM HIS POURS, nobody questions why he needs these things and in such a hurry. I'm not totally sure WHY the author needs to tell us over and over and over again how muscly and intimidating Hazard is, but APPARENTLY its an important plot point to the story. So make a note in your journals kiddies: Hazard = MUSCLES AND AUTHORITY. Got it? Good.

They ride like hell for a few days before Hazard notices a cloud of dust following their stage coach. He assesses it to be eight to ten hired men chasing after them. But no worries, Hazard has a plan! Hazard leaps onto the back of the stage horses (nimble! lithe!) and cuts the two leads free (ingenuity! skill!) and pulls the two horses back behind the stage. Hazard instructs the drivers to keep pushing at full speed to the next town, while he and Blaze hop onto the horses he cut free and ride off into the sunset THE END (no... no. thats not the end. they ride off towards a creek bed with the hopes that the trackers won't notice their tracks. Still not the end. Sorry.).

Blaze: Chapter 40

This chapter takes a VERY LONG TIME to get anywhere, so i'll do my best to make it shorter (and therefor better! Thank god i'm here.) Blaze asks Lydia what she should do about Hazard. Lydia says she needs to stop worrying cause Hazard loves her, no question about it. Blaze is skeptical but hopeful. Hazard comes back from his walk, eats a lot of dinner and we learn that Hazard knows Lydia from when he was 15. Blaze is fascinated by the tales Lydia has to tell about Hazard and listens to her stories deep into the night. It gets late and Hazard says he's going to sleep outside and everyone should get some shut eye. Lydia isn't going to have any married couple sleeping in separate beds in her home (EXCEPT FOR THE FACT THAT THEY AREN'T REALLY LEGALLY MARRIED HAS EVERYONE FORGOTTEN ABOUT THIS?!) so Hazard better bunk up with Blaze or he'll get what's coming to him. Hazard acquiesce the command and heads to bed with Blaze. Blaze gets in bed and Hazard in beside her and they just lay there. Blaze realizes that she's really lost Hazard FOREVER and begins to cry silently. Hazard eventually hears her and his heart goes out to her. Hazard pulls Blaze into his arms and she sobs and sobs, saying how tired she is of resisting and being strong. Hazard feels like a fool and says he will be strong for both of them and the baby from here on out. They say more things about needing each other and being strong together and Blaze reminds him that she didn't write the note he thinks she wrote. Hazard, STILL NOT BELIEVING HER, says it doesn't matter, he DOESN'T WANT TO THINK ABOUT IT. So instead of talking it out they fuck and everything is as it once was. Hoo-fucking-ray.

Blaze: Chapter 39

Blaze convinces Hazard that she is tired of being on the run non-stop and wants to sleep in a bed in [insert name of what I will assume is a mid-west town here]. Hazard hems and haws but eventually agrees after seeing how TIRED AND FRAIL AND FULL OF FETUS Blaze is. Blaze squeals and rushes Hazard, hugging him. Hazard has VERY MIXED FEELINGS because he has been avoiding physical contact with Blaze and here she is, all pressed up on him and all he can think about is BONING HER SENSELESS. More conflicted feelings blah blah blah life in the balance boner boner boner whatever. He gently pushes Blaze away and says he knows where they can go.

Hazard packs Blaze into a stage coach and they head towards the outskirts of town. Blaze cries for awhile (with "silently splashing" tears (wha?)), realizing that Hazard really might not come back to her and how will she ever pierce his heart when he BELIEVES THINGS THAT JUST STRAIGHT UP DON'T MAKE SENSE. They stop at a farm house way outside of town and we are introduced to Lydia Bailey. She tsks at Hazard for his obvious rough treatment of the girl, takes Blaze and bundles her into bed. Hazard frets silently until he is permitted to see Blaze. He apologizes for pushing her so hard and she says she's fine and she thinks the baby is doing well, but she doesn't really know cause, ya know, she's never been knocked up before. Hazard REALIZES HE IS TALKING TO THE SAME BLAZE AS THE BLAZE HE MARRIED (Pah! She's wet blanket Blaze now. No more blaze in that Blaze there...) and feels CONFLICTED. It was so easy to think of her just as the woman raising his beh-bay when she was TWO THOUSAND MILES AWAY but now that she's HERE its much harder to dismiss her. They tip toe around each others feelings for a bit before Hazard admits he's scared of Blaze and the power she holds over him. Hazard leaves to tend to the horses and Blaze sleeps like a log.

Hazard sits on the porch with Lydia, and tells her about Yancy, Mummy and why they're chasing them. Lydia informs him that Blaze loves him and she has had 8 beh-bays and knows a thing or two about relationships and if you want to make it work, you can make it work. So there. They chit chat on the porch for awhile until Blaze wakes and joins them. She ogles Hazard from the doorway for a bit before joining them on the porch. Lydia removes herself from the porch and Blaze asks if Hazard remembers the good times (i'm paraphrasing). Hazard INTENSELY REMEMBERS THE GOOD TIMES and is having trouble keeping his feelings in check wherever Blaze is involved. Blaze asks Hazard why they can't be together and Hazard says BECAUSE WE JUST CREATE PROBLEMS BEING TOGETHER I'M GOING FOR A WALK STOP LOOKING AT ME. Hazard jumps the railing and saunters off. I wish I could just walk away from conversations I don't want to have. Then my life can be as simple and exciting as Jon Hazard Black's!!

Blaze: Chapter 38

Mummy is very upset to hear that Blaze has escaped from Madame something something's and demands that Fancy Yancy go after her. Mummy reminds him that they need her cause there is NO WAY Mummy is supporting both herself and Yancy on her MEAGER INHERITANCE. As it stands, I'm not really sure WHY Mummy and Yancy need Blaze since they have that nice power of attorney piece of paper but in true single faceted villain fashion its either everyone is dead or nothing is okay. So Mummy asks Yancy how much is it going to cost to run the two love birds to the ground and Yancy gives her a list of all the horses and supplies and super sneaky trackers he needs to hire. Yancy figures they can't have more than a days head start and he'll get to them way before they get to Montana. Mummy asks how he knows they're heading west? Besides the fact that its OBVIOUS Yancy tells her (in a matter-of-factly tone) that Hazard's an Injun, thats how he knows.

 On a happier note, YAY SUPER SHORT CHAPTER YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY

Blaze: Chapter 37

Sitting in a hired carriage headed West, Blaze tells Hazard that she was FORCED to sign all her monies and power of attorney over to her Mummy and Yancy but she made sure to leave everything to the baby in her will.  This does not quite jive with Hazard's view that she didn't want the baby (and therefore him) but he is stubborn enough to make sure that he ignores anything that doesn't fit with his world view.  Hazard falls asleep as Blaze gets ready to snap back at him and she realizes how EXHAUSTED poor Hazard is.  Her heart goes out to him and blah blah blah HE MAY BE A JERK BUT HE'S MY JERK.  Gag.  When Hazard awakens to see to a change of the horses, Blaze attempts to lay some logic on Hazard but he'll have none of it.  His memory of almost being buried alive all too fresh for him to forgive her even though its pretty obvious she had nothing to do with it.  Here is a direct quote to show you how much time Hazard has REALLY thought about this: Blaze: "Why would I leave a note, anyway, if I'd had a hand in with Yancy?"  Hazard: "Protect yourself, I suppose.  Hell, don't ask me to figure it out.  I gave up on that quite a few weeks ago." CAUSE IF I'VE DECIDED IT'S TRUE BUT CAN'T LOGICALLY FIGURE OUT HOW IT'S TRUE IT STILL MUST BE TRUE.  Blaze tells him she isn't giving up on him that easy and will scratch out the eyes of any woman who tries to get near him.  Hazard is unfazed.

They board a train in upstate New York for St. Louis and Hazard hires a whole car, which he keeps Blaze locked in anytime he leaves.  Blazes reminds him she isn't trying to escape from him but Hazard is unmoved.  This goes on for a few days till Hazard comes in with breakfast one morning to find Blaze vomiting.  She explains its morning sickness and he holds her hair, cradles her and props her up in a chair with some pillows.  After realizing his was being NICE, he gets moody and super quiet around Blaze.  Blaze eventually has enough of this and forces him to talk to her.  They talk about Yancy possibly being on their trail and a bunch of other stuff till we learn that Hazard's first wife died after she tried to give herself an abortion.  Blaze is very apologetic about his first wife, says she never planned to go through with the abortion anyway, and asks Hazard to just try to be her friend.  Hazard agrees but is sure to leave the train car anytime Blaze dresses or undresses, so as not to be "lured or enchanted again by Blaze's beauty or sensuality."  Cause, ya know, Hazard has to make sure to keep everything in his pants lest his FEELINGS come jutting out.  Eww.

Blaze: Chapter 36

Blaze is escorted to a very lavish but slightly tacky bedroom in Madame something something's abortion asylum, all ready to talk Madame something something into taking her black pearls and letting her run away from Fancy Yancy. She grits her teeth as the door opens, but who is it but none other than Mr. Jon Hazard Black! He must have really booked it to get from New York to Boston so quick. Blaze is shocked, overjoyed but then wary cause she sees how pissed off Hazard looks. She asks how he knew where she was, which just acts as fuel on the fire of Hazard anger. There is a lot of blah blah blah where Hazard gents angry, then calms himself by remembering Blaze is a spoiled bitch and says something cold and calculating that he thinks makes total sense but just succeeds in confusing Blaze and being rude. Blaze eventually becomes overwhelmed by her hearts gladness at seeing him, even though she is confused by Hazard's anger, and she starts to tear up. I'm going to chalk all this up the the baby, because FIREY Blaze would NEVER show such a lowly emotion in front of anyone, but maybe firey Blaze is all gone and we won't get to see her anymore... damn. Blaze is concerned for Hazed being in the same house as Yancy but apparently Hazard paid off Madame something something to let him steal Blaze out from under Yancy's nose. There a bunch more blah blah blah where Hazard is VERY COLD AND UNFEELING and Blaze MISSED HAZARD TERRIBLY but HE DOESN'T GIVE A DAMN. He still thinks she was in cahoots with Yancy, which she says she wasn't, but Hazard always jumps to the correct conclusions and she left a NOTE so that is obvious proof obviously. Hazard informs Blaze he is taking her back to Montana so the baby can be born with his people and then Blaze can get the fuck out of his life. Blaze says what if she doesn't want to leave to which Hazard replies you totes will WANT to leave because you'll be 2nd wife to my dead wife's sister who i'm gonna marry but lets not talk about that now cause we gotta go! Blaze tells him THIS CONVERSATION IS NOT OVER BUT OKAY and they escape out the window.

Blaze: Chapter 35

So SOMEONE shows up at Mummy's house (the author doesn't say who until almost the end of the chapter; she just calls him "he" a whole bunch. I'll describe the scene for you and you see if you can guess WHO IT MIGHT BE) and demands to see Blaze. Mummy: She isn't here. Him: Don't care. Get her down here. Mummy: No. Him: Fine. I'll go get her myself. Mummy: Thats foolish. She isn't here. Him: Okay, where is she? Mummy: Not here. Him: Yes, I got that. So WHERE is she? Mummy: None of your bees-wax. Him: Don't get cute. You've got ten seconds to tell me where she is before I choke the life out of you with my bare hands (hmmm... just WHO could that be?! I'm truly stumped). Mummy: You've caused her enough pain already! Just leave her alone! Him: Eight seconds. Mummy: You don't scare me. Him: Five seconds. Mummy: I'm not telling you a damn thing. Him: Two seconds. Mummy: Yancy will kill you when he gets back! Him: Well it is certainly convenient that he isn't here. One second. You're finished.
He grabs her and chokes her till she tells him that Blaze has been taken to see Madame something something in New York. Hazard (OH THATS WHO IT WAS, I DIDN'T SEE THAT COMING) drops Mummy and runs out of the house, hell bent to get to New York before something TERRIBLE happens.

PS: I looked ahead and this book totals 47 CHAPTERS WITH AN EPILOGUE! HOW IS THIS BOOK STILL SO FAR FROM BEING OVER?! Gughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

Blaze: Chapter 34

While Yancy was correct, Hazard has been sleeping with Rose in her bed, he has NOT been having sex with her. Rose even goes so far as to proposition Hazard for some NSA sexy time, but Hazard politely refuses (SHOCKING). Rose asks Hazard why he doesn't just go after her and how do you know she wrote the note and knew of Yancy's plan and all the other things you've figured out all by yourself? Hazard says he just knows. Rose: Yes, but what about the baby Hazard? Hazard: I am SO ANGRY about that I have to keep my BLINDING RAGE constantly IN CHECK. Rose: * scared * Hazard: Sorry, I just feel like such a dupe... ya know. Since I believe myself to have been duped by my lady love. Rose: * understanding noises *
Once Hazard feels well enough he returns to his people but does not find the solace he seeks. He spends lots of time alone, BROODING LIKE A CHAMP, and the tribe starts to become worried. When Hazard approaches Bold Ax about marrying HfH Gurl they take it as a good sign (WHAT?!). Hazard decides that marrying HfH Gurl will finally squelch all the feeling he has still burning for Blaze (THIS IS A TERRIBLE IDEA AND BLAZE WILL PULL HER HAIR OUT). As Hazard sits by a tree in the crisp fall weather watching a mother and her two toddlers play together (condensed down from a page and a half into one sentence) he realizes he HATES EVERYTHING ABOUT BOSTON WINTERS (rightfully so) and NO BABY OF HIS WILL GROW UP THERE. So he saddles up, determined to bring his child back to where it belongs. Rising Wolf checks in with him before he leaves, and Hazard grinds his teeth a bunch and is very determined to win and all the ladies do as he says, or else. I really see this working out for Hazard. I mean this attitude has always done wonders for him, so I can't see it failing now! (end sarcasm.)
Hazard takes the train from Diamond City, resting his arm and sleeping with a hat over his eyes. Everyone is a little wary of him, but gives him his space. Outside of Salt Lake City some rustlers attempt to hold up Hazard's train and are promptly shot dead "in less time than the human eye could follow" (direct quote). Then everyone on the train give him LOTS of space. He makes it to Boston in a little over ten days flat (Ugh. Can you imagine? Ten days sitting on a coal train. Bleghhhhhhh).
Yancy lets Blaze in on the fact that he taking her to get an abortion about an hour before they are scheduled to leave for Planned Parenthood (see: big giant expensive house run by Madame something something in New York). Blaze says you can't make me and Yancy says yes I can and Blaze says you can't make me and Yancy says YES I CAN. Blaze decides this is a good time to try to plan an escape and decides to wear her REALLY EXPENSIVE black pearls, in hopes she can bribe Madame something something in New York to let her sneak away without telling Yancy. Blaze plans to head south in a hired carriage and then hop on a train west from Baltimore and get back to Montana as fast as she can.

Blaze: Chapter 33

As Hazard is slowly pulling himself together, back in Boston, Mummy finds out that Bladdy left ALL his money to Blaze. Mummy gets to stay in her house and gets a stipend but the twnety two million dollar fortune all goes to Blaze. Mummy is FURIOUS and Blaze says she wants to go back to Montana. The book now goes on to describe how PAINFULLY BEAUTIFUL Blaze is in her mourning. Wearing all black and being slightly preggnoes apparently makes her IRRESISTIBLE to all the men in Boston, non of which she wants anything to do with. Hazard has ruined other men for her... they all seem so tame now. Mummy says Blaze returning to Montana is ridiculous and Blaze says you can't tell me what to do. This makes Mummy even ANGRIER and she goes to pitch a fit, but Fancy Yancy stops her, whispering in her ear that he has a plan. And its a good-un.
When they return to the house, Yancy secretly locks Blaze in her bedroom and goes to tell poor-simple Hannah the handmaid that Blaze left for Montana right after the will reading was over. Hannah is skeptical but is eventually convinced that yes, Blaze would leave without her, but thats okay because the poor girl is so distraught and what with the baby and all... oh, did you two not know about the upcoming birth? Mummy takes the news in stride, realizing she has even more leverage now, and tells Hannah that since Blaze is gone they will no longer be needing her. Hannah, NEVER QUESTIONING ANY OF THIS, leaves and goes to her sister's, out of Yancy and Mummy's way. This is why you don't hire simple people to be the hired help. They DON'T HELP AT ALL in minor cases of cunning. oh well.
Mummy and Yancy agree that the best way to get the monies off of Blaze is to make her sign her power of attorney over to them. They'll tell everyone she left for Montana and keep her locked in her room till she signs the papers and then ship her off to Europe to get her the hell out of their hair. Yancy and Mummy go upstairs and tell Blaze their demands. Blaze is less than fazed by the idea of losing all her monies (she has a trust fund they cant get within twenty miles of, so what does she care) but she doesn't like how greedy they're being about all this. Although, when your a single faceted villain, who wouldn't be shocked that all you want is to take the money and run? But I guess Blaze hasn't read too many romance novels. Blaze doesn't want the bad guys to win but she doesn't want them to kill her baby like they did Hazard, so she asks for time to think about it. Yancy says he'll give her three weeks... or else. Blaze goes to bed, wishing that Hazard wasn't dead and in the morning Yancy comes in to tell her that in fact, he isn't, but he is fucking other people while she isn't there. Blaze is elated that Hazard isn't dead, but confused why he is fucking other people. He said he loved her and was married to her. Doesn't that mean anything? Yancy suggests she not wait for Hazard to come save her and just sign the papers already. Blaze stares out the window until Yancy leaves and then devises a great escape plan to get the fuck out of Boston. While I wish that was true, it isn't. Instead of doing ANYTHING, Blaze JUST SITS THERE FOR THREE WEEKS HOPING HAZARD WILL COME SAVE HER. Thats it. I'm not quite sure where Blaze's blaze went, but apparently it went out. Yancy comes in at the end of three weeks and Blaze signs the papers without even putting up a fight (WHAT WHAT WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!). This wet blanket Blaze is WAY MORE ANNOYING than angry, irrational Blaze. Blegh.
Yancy and Mummy are up celebrating their big pile of monies when Yancy suggests they kill Blaze's baby in order to make sure there will never be any claim against them as the owners of ALL THE MONIES. Mummy isn't sure how he plans on doing that and Yancy explains in very small words that he is going to take Blaze to have an abortion. Since they have power of attorney over Blaze, they don't have to ask her about anything, they can just make her do it. Mummy wants to know when the dirty deed will be done, and Yancy says he will take care of it first thing in the morning.

Blaze: Chapter 32

Rose is nursing Hazard back to health and every time she finds him alone she find him brooding and the more times she finds him brooding the more she thinks Blaze MENT SOMETHING to Hazard. Rose asks him one day if he wants to talk about it and Hazard says its going to take a lot of work to re-open the mine. Rose says thats not what she was referring to and Hazard thanks her for taking care of him again. Rose says that is not what she was talking about and Hazard asks if she is going to give in to the young clerk who obviously has the hots for her. Rose: STOP CHANGING THE SUBJECT HAZARD HE IS NICE TO ME. Hazard: You should be good to him, he is young. Rose: Hes only 4 years younger than you... Hazard: I've seen so much so I FEEL really old. Rose: Are you gonna go get Blaze back or what? Hazard: Why? Its not like I was into her or anything, she was just a pawn in the game I was playing with her father (LIES LIES LIES ALL LIES). Rose: *skepticism noises* Hazard: Nope, don't care about that red headed hottie, not one bit. Although... I do wonder about the baybeh sometimes... *le sigh* Hazard spends the rest of the chapter drinking heavily and telling himself that an Indian chief could NEVER choose a yellow eyes over his tribe and his INSURMOUNTABLE ODDS are way more important than any feelings he might have had for that horny ginger. And he is very angry about all of it.

Blaze: Chapter 31

We find Hazard still digging himself out of his collapsed mine, only now he has burnt out the last of his candles. By his calculations he is not more then ten inches from breaking through to the surface, but he is VERY TIRED, and VERY INJURED, and everything is taking A VERY LONG TIME. Now that Hazard has had to fight his way out of a mine collapse, I am doubling my bets on Fancy Yancy dyeing in a mine collapse. It would be very poetic of Hazard to kill his enemy in the same manner his enemy tried to kill him. So, Hazard is digging and digging and he is very tired and we hear about this over and over again for a few pages. Hazard breaks through to the surface and then very slowly takes his time getting out of the hole he has dug because, like I said, he is VERY INJURED. REMINDER: HAZARD IS FUCKED UP RIGHT NOW YO. He gets himself out of his hole and lies down on the ground, thanking the earth spirits and singing to them (no lie. Not sure where he is getting the energy to sing, but whatevs).
Hazard returns to the cabin to find everything either stolen or broken. He is shocked at the violence man is capable of, stumbles around in his pain to find a clue about Blaze's whereabouts and eventually discovers "her" note. It reads (direct quote): "Hazard, I don't make a good hostage. I told you that. I'm going back to Boston. Blaze." Hazard being a romance hero with no sense of skepticism, IMMEDIATELY BELIEVES THE NOTE TO BE TRUE. I don't know about you, but that note sounds NOTHING LIKE BLAZE. I mean really, she would have used so many more words and never had been able to communicate leaving Hazard to go back to Boston so eloquently. But Hazard falls for it and instantly assumes that Blaze's pregnancy was to further her father's company's claim on his land and mine. Cause if she has his baby (which nobody outside of Hazard can prove is his and with him supposedly dead and all... but we won't bring that up.), the baby would inherit everything that Hazard owns. Hazard vows to re-open the mine and never be caught un-aware again.
He limps his way to Rose's and faints in a chair in her room. Rose finds him, tends to him and when he wakes, tells him that Blaze has returned to Boston. Hazard says he knows, "I only wish the pampered princess (ouch) had left with less fanfare."

Blaze: Chapter 30

All Fancy Yancy's horses and all Fancy Yancy's men show up at Hazards mine and fuck shit up. Hazard is caught completely unaware (how un-Indian of him!) and Blaze is instantly captured. We find Hazard hiding in his mine, the lower half of his arm shattered (literally described as "shattered," and how he got it, I still dont know. I read this whole chapter and they just never say!) and bleeding heavily. Fancy Yancy and his men are in the process of preparing to blow up the entrance to the mine and completely entomb Hazard. Though a lot of gobbilty-gook about Hazard being in BLINDING PAIN from his injury he limps his way to a box of candles and faints atop it as the mine entrance is blown shut. His one continuous thought is of Blaze and his unborn baybeh.
Blaze awakes to find herself in a bed in her mother's home. Mummy is there but Blaze demands to see Bladdy. Mummy says Bladdy is long dead and you're more than welcome to go look at him in the morgue if you really want to. Blaze, FINALLY AWARE HER FATHER HAS BEEN REPORTEDLY DEAD FOR TEN CHAPTERS, is upset and calls her mom a bitch. Mummy doesn't really care what Blaze has to say cause by the way your Indian man-whore is dead too. Shocked and numb, Blaze denies it for awhile, her mother confirms it for awhile and then Blaze hides her face in the pillow.
Blaze spends the next two days hiding in bed. Mummy suggests returning to Boston which Blaze numbly agrees to. She tells her maid Hannah (who I think we met in the beginning but it was such a minor mention that I didn't even notice it...) that after Bladdy is buried, she will return to the West and have her baby with the Indians. Hannah grieves for Blaze and offers her all the support in the world (which is sweet but, really? A ladies maid who COOS and CARES and BELIEVES IN YOU. I've never read that before. ever.).
Flash over to Hazard, who has been starting to chip away at the ceiling of the mine in his TERRIBLY INJURED CONDITION OH GOD I'M GONNA FAINT AGAIN. He makes a splint and watches his arm get nastier and nastier day by day but still he keeps chipping away at that ceiling cause HE MUST GET TO HIS BLAZE AND HIS BAYBEH. Or he will die trying (Just like 50 Cent!). Direct quote: "It would be his ultimate test and he knew it. Jon Hazard Black versus Death." (My bet is on Death in the long run...)
Blaze leaves on a jet plane (train) back to Boston with Fancy Yancy and Mummy. She still keeps to her bed and Hannah becomes concerned. When Hannah sees a little spark of life in Blaze's eyes one day, she reminds Blaze that she must FIGHT! She must! If not for her father's sake then for the sake of the child! There is the baybeh's birthright to consider! Blaze asks how Hannah knew and Hannah says all old biddies in romance novels can instantly tell whose pregnoes and who isn't. Its just a fact. But Fancy Yancy and Mummy don't know, I can assure you that. Cause they're not old biddies, they're bad guys... get it? Blaze understands and feels the fire in her burn once more! She asks for a dress, pen, paper and a witness. She is going to re-write her will! As she steps off the train in Boston a new fire once again burns in Blaze's soul, which Yancy and Mummy TOTALLY MISS (uh oh). Direct quote: "It was their first mistake in the battle about to erupt."

Blaze: Chapter 29

At dawn, Blaze, Hazard, Rising Wolf and an escort start back for Hazard's mine. When they get there they find nothing has been altered. Nobody came in the house, nobody touched the mine, nobody found the big gun... nothing. If Fancy Yancy isn't dead (which I'm pretty sure he isn't... we're still waiting on that mine collapse!) then where in the hell has he been? He could have been ransacking things left and right! Once the mine is deemed all clear, Rising Wolf and the escort leave. Blaze and Hazard coo over each other, remembering the good times in the cabin (but avoiding the hostage situation). Hazard suggests, what with the baby coming and all, that they should find her father and tell him, or confirm if hes dead or not. Blaze thinks that's a great idea, but still has no idea that her father could be dead. Hazard plans to talk to Jimmy and Rose to see what he can find out about Bladdy's whereabouts.
Scene cuts to Blaze's mother and Fancy Yancy (NOT DEAD) discussing their wedding plans. Yancy now has a raspier edge to his voice, having survived the knife would to his neck (mine collapse here we come!). Yancy wants to get married right away but Blaze's mummy knows she must mourn her husbands death for at least a year, so not to be ostracized from Boston society. We now find out that Bladdy is in fact dead, and currently lying in the town morgue. Fancy Yancy sent out some men to kill Bladdy and his Indian escort and knew he would live through his knife wound when he found out they had been successful killed (how sweet). The men used long range pistols to pick off Bladdy and his Indian. Bladdy went down hard but his Indian limped away and hasn't been seen since (PREDICTION: Bladdy is NOT dead, he WAS the Indian. Tricky tricky). Blaze's mummy also needs Blaze back so they can go to Boston and collect on the will. She looks way better with a live daughter then she does with a dead one, so she asks Yancy to help her in retrieving Blaze but she makes sure to point out that she does not give a flying fuck what happens to Hazard. Yancy says he will take care of everything tomorrow, not a problem. Blaze's Mommy reminds him to bring the note (what note?) so that it looks like Blaze left of her own free will (ooooo! INTRIGUE!).

PS: I love short chapters, don't you?

Blaze: Chapter 28

Blaze and Hazard spend the next little while in lovers bliss. They enjoy the sunshine, each other, and other gooey things. Hazard tells Blaze about a vision quest he went on where he learned he had greatness in him (not a dick joke). Blaze offers her love and support for anything Hazard may face with his greatness (heh heh). Hazard takes Blaze to some council meetings against his tribes wishes but he is the chief so he can do whatever he wants suck it (even though they are a very EQUAL society). Blaze is honored but taps out pretty quick cause the meetings are long and boring. While Hazard is getting his tribe meeting on, Blaze hangs out with a nephew of Hazard's named Red Plume. Hazard uses Blaze's absence to ask about Blaze's Daddy and if he is really dead or not. Lucky for him, the person who may or may not have seen Bladdy last is not at the tribe right now so Hazard just drops it and continues to think that not telling Blaze ANYTHING is the best policy. The tribe discusses the upcoming pony (read: panty) raid and agrees to leave in the morning.
Hazard is pulled aside by his dead wife's father, Bold Ax (again, not a dick joke), who tells him that his young daughter wants him BAD. Like, REAL BAD. Hazard is flattered but declines and says she'll get over it soon, she's young. I somehow see ALL THE THINGS HAZARD LOVES TO DISREGARD as being a problem later in this book...
Scene cut to Hazard and Blaze in bed late that night. Hazard tells Blaze he is leaving with the raid party tomorrow and Blaze can't come. Hazard is very slick about telling Blaze she cant come, so as to avoid her flaring up at him and demanding to be involved. Blaze is VERY WORRIED about Hazard dying and really doesn't want him to go. Hazard is kind (in his own way...), but insists that he is going. Scene cut to Blaze and Hazard's tearful goodbye. Ya know what this sounds like to me? Stockholm Syndrome. Her captor is leaving her ALONE in a society she doesn't understand after emotionally and sexually abusing her to the point of NEEDING him. Or its love. Who can say? Hazard says goodbye and leaves Blaze in Red Plume's care. Hazard rides out and is struck by the beauty of his land and contemplates his rich history and culture, rah rah boring. Rising Wolf laughs at Hazard and says he is getting soft over a yellow eyes. Hazard denies it but does admit to being stupidly happy and he highly recommends finding a bitch to leave behind. Rising Wolf says thanks but no thanks.
Back at the tribe, Blaze spends her days hanging out with Red Plume. Red Plume takes care of Blaze and falls in love with her. (Yes, just like that.) Blaze enjoys her time but misses Hazard and is REALLY WORRIED cause she knows she has a bun in the oven now (took her long enough). One morning Blaze wakes to the sound of horses and goes outside to find thirty horses outside Hazard's lodge. Hazard is BACK and has just made Blaze a VERY RICH WOMAN with all her pretty ponies. Blaze is so happy he's back and happy to hear he stole a groom for the horses as well.
Hazard sleeps, Blaze watches him and memorizes his face for awhile and contemplates how to tell Hazard she is in the family way. Hazard wakes up and tells her all about the raid and the ponies running and Spirit Eagle doing brave but stupid things and Blaze just thinks about how pretty Hazard is. I just cut down like four pages of Indian pony raid for you into one run-on sentence. Your welcome. Hazard asks Blaze if she missed him and she fucks him to show just how much. Im surprised she held off that long but aren't we always learning new and special things about Blaze?
Hazard and Blaze go to the post ponies party (alliteration what what!!) and run into Bold Ax with his Horny-for-Hazard daughter (the HfH Gurl). Bold Ax thanks Hazard for the horses he gave him, but is worried HfH Gurl is getting the wrong idea. HfH Gurl is eyeing up Blaze and remarking on how odd it is that she can't cook for her man. Hazard thanks her for her concern over his welfare but hes fine thankyouverymuch. Hazard says the ponies are just a gift between FRIENDS even though we established earlier that a gift of horses is a proposal... I'm sure Hazard knows way more about his CULTURE AND HERITAGE than I do... Blaze is a little miffed at HfH Gurl's inability to restrain herself but Hazard says there's nothing to worry about (LIKE HE ALWAYS DOES). He tells Blaze they're gonna leave in a few days, so really, its nothing to concern yourself over. Blaze doesn't want to leave but Hazard says they must. She goes all doe eyed on him but Hazard stands firm. I kinda miss Blaze's firey spirit... it at least made for more interesting arguments.
Blaze cannot sleep later that night for worrying. She keeps thinking about going back to the mine and how HORRIBLY FUCKED everything is there and decides its time to tell Hazard she's preggos. She wakes him and drops the bomb but Hazard tells her he already knew. I have to quote this next passage directly, cause you need to read the words Hazard uses to describe how long they've been doing the sexy dance. "I've been with you every day, from maré á ape así ? to batsu(w)ō' oce. I would have known if your monthly cycle had come." and no, the question mark is not a typo. Blaze asks Hazard if he's happy about the baby, and Hazard muses on the INSURMOUNTABLE ODDS he must face and the added terror of something being more important than he is. Blaze makes Hazard promise they can come back to the tribe for the birth of the baby. Hazard promises.

Blaze: Chapter 27

Blaze and Hazard get back from their sexy sexy time by the water and have to rush and get ready for the big dance tonight! Blaze is worried she wont know the steps and Hazard, brushing her hair lovingly, croons that he will show her how. Scene cuts to Hazard and Blaze enjoying the owl dance (also known as a strange collection of vowels with an umlaut thrown in in Hazard's native tongue). As they're dancing Hazard catches Spirit Eagle, one of the younger warriors, eyeing Blaze all fierce like. There is some more talk about the intricacies of the dancing (boring and mildly sexual) when the drums start a new rhythm and Hazard quickly pulls Blaze out of the dance! Hazard tells her she wouldn't know the steps and instructs Rising Wolf to keep a close eye on Spirit Eagle (cause thats not weird at all...). The dance Blaze is not allowed to do is a marriage/makeout dance. All the girls get in a circle and all the hot young thangs give them presents and kisses. If hot young thang gives his girl a horse, they are married. Boom, all done. So the couples are kissing and Blaze is watching when some old medicine women come up to Hazard and start bitching at him. Blaze, feeling generous after her long and overly descriptive boink, tells Hazard to go! Enjoy the dance! Really, I don't mind. (LIES!!!!) Hazard hems and haws, but finally agrees he should (cause it's expected of him, since he is both a hot young thang and a chief) and heads into the dance. Blaze is content until she sees the girl Hazard is about to kiss. This girl wants it from Hazard, BAD. Blaze gets progressively angrier and angrier as she watches Hazard give the girl whats what with his face. Rising Wolf (always the diplomat) tells Blaze that the lady Hazard is smooching is his dead wife's younger sister! Blaze becomes so enraged that she storms off into the dark, eluding Rising Wolf and all others who try to stop her.
Hazard pulls back from his kiss, a little startled at how hot and heavy it had gotten, cause really, he dont want no other lady when he has Blaze! to find that Blaze has stormed off and Spirit Eagle is no where in sight!! (Blaze is in SO MUCH TROUBLE!). Hazard muses that he knew something was up with Spirit (- Eagle) and it was getting kinda obvious how much Spirit wanted to challenge Hazard's AS A MAN for power and glory within the tribe. Oh the life of a sexy Inidan chiefton...
Meanwhile, Blaze is lost in the dark (saw that coming) when she runs into Spirit (saw that coming too). Blaze, SO GODDAMN BLAZINGLY JEALOUS, sees the young warrior as the PERFECT OPPORTUNITY to make Hazard JEALOUS AS FUCK. She suggests dancing to the young warrior, cause if Hazard can dance and makeout with anyone he wants, so can Blaze! Blaze starts to sway against the warrior, motioning him to come dance with her down by the river (not a euphemism) and Spirit thinks that sounds awesome (thinking it is a euphemism) and grabs Blaze. Realizing this has gotten WAY OUT OF HAND (saw that coming as well), Blaze tries to pull away but is weak and feeble and can't do shit. She fights and he pulls her along for quite some time until Spirit decides this is way to much work and i'll just kiss her here right now. He goes in for the big smooch just as Hazard rounds the corner. Blaze, feeling no fear now that Hazard is near (YES YES YES IT RHYMES I LOVE IT), remembers she is OH GOD SO DAMN ANGRY, and kisses Spirit like she means it. Hazard, having not seen Blaze's struggles (they make it seem like that point is really important in this passage, so i'll remind you of it once again), explodes with jealous rage (on the inside btw. He is all masterfully calm on the outside). Hazard separates the two (verbally, not physically (damn)), sends Blaze back to his lodge with Rising Wolf and goes to deal with Spirit personally.
Spirit compliments Hazard choice in Blaze and Hazard tells him to back off or else. Spirit is ready to fight for her but Hazard doesn't fight over women and won't have this conversation with you young man, so just stay the fuck away from her. Spirit is disgusted that Hazard would let a woman have so much sway in his life. Hazard, understanding the boys motives, desires, past, future, dreams, blah, blah, blah, says he knows its crazy but back the fuck off. Spirit suggests Hazard is getting weak. Hazard tells him he is welcome to come find out (snap!).
Hazard heads back to his lodge to find Rising Wolf guarding the door. Hazard tells him not to worry... he isn't going to hit her (oh thank god). Hazard enters and finds Blaze bright eyed, bushy tailed and PISSED. She flings everything she has at him (verbally, not physically) and asks why he keeps her around and pretends to love and care for her when its OBVIOUS she is but a drop in the bucket of the things he needs to posses sexually. Hazard is a little hurt/appalled... he'd been telling his people that Blaze was his wife and that decision did not come lightly (not that Blaze would know that, since she continues to NOT SPEAK THE LANGUAGE). Blaze goes for the jugular and asks if she should be paying Hazard for his attentions over the last week. Hazard, so angry he can hardly see straight, flops down on the bed and lets Blaze's yelling rain down on him. The quieter Hazard gets, the more rage-tastic Blaze gets until she tries to slap him. Hazard grabs her arm before she can make contact and pins her to the bed, grinding his pelvis into hers. I know when I'm fighting with someone I always need to throw a good sexual assault in there too... Hazard says he owns Blaze and Blaze says no man owns her and so on and so on for awhile. You cant fuck other guys, yes I can, no you cant, yes I can, trollop, hypocrit, you get the idea. They struggle until they stop (and yes, that happens just as suddenly as it seems and for no real reason) and Blaze confesses she kissed Spirit in retaliation for Hazard kissing his dead wife's sister. Hazard says he understands, and that he wants Blaze to stay with him always and he loves her. He becomes overwhelmed with his feelings, has to think about his dad, his vision quest and his horrible plight to save his tribe from the yellow eyes before he'll snuggle into the safety of Blaze's arms and let her profess her love for him. Hazard marvels at how easy it is for Blaze to love and how fully she experiences her emotions (also know as a bi-polar disorder...) and humpty dances her all night long

Blaze: Chapter 26

In a less than shocking move, Hazard and Blaze head off to a secret little pond/meadow/wooded area, swim, fuck, and then profess their love to each other. That's the whole chapter. Seriously. In honor of this chapter I will now quote all the pairings of words that made me go 'blegh':

'undulating grassy highlands', 'fragrantly verdant', 'burgeoning fertility', ladened plum bough', 'slimly erect', 'woodland sprite surprised at her bath', 'cut through the water like a whipcord', 'frothy bubbles', 'like silk on velvet', 'waggish amusement slid lacily', 'internal guide to excellence', 'a swollen dimension', 'lovely rampant length', 'his erection beautiful and offering to her', 'very slowly, savoring the separate words', 'pleasure like opium dreams', 'so beautifully inside her', 'impudent wretch', 'hot little body starts tuning up', 'pettishly exhaled', 'quivering heart of her need', 'round opulent', 'high peaked presentation', 'lush pink flesh', 'rough-soft voice', 'dewy sweetness', 'shattering surge', 'creamy fluid drip languidly', 'as the spring sun kisses new tender green shoots', 'precious creature poised like a shimmer of gold', 'flaring golden-striped gossamer wing'

You can't make shit like this up.

Blaze: Chapter 25

The tribe is riding out for the first buffalo hunt of the season, with both men and women in attendance. The tribe rides single file across the land in a MAJESTIC and NOBLE formation. The young warriors of the tribe ride around the line at top speed, doing acrobatic feats to impress all the bitches. Blaze is all a giggle at their athletic abilities and Hazard is feeling a little... oh wait... what's that feeling? The one where you want ALL THE ATTENTION and get pissy when SOMEONE ELSE HAS IT...hm. Hazard does not wish to look too deeply into the murky well that is his emotions, so he chooses to just dismiss his feelings and carry on. Rising Wolf asks Hazard how it feels to be on the other side of the tribes mating games? Defending his claim instead of coaxing it away... Hazard glares and Blaze asks what are you guys talking about BECAUSE I HAVE NO IDEA WHATS GOING ON SINCE I DONT SPEAK YOUR NOBLE NATIVE LANGUAGE. Hazard says it's boy chat, nothing more. Hazard asks Blaze to please be careful during the hunt and to not try anything stupid (like usual), cause a heard of buffalo cannot tell the difference between her fine ass and a tree (was that a skinny crack? cause Blaze is about to be AS BIG AS A HOUSE in about 8 months or so...). Blaze says she's not going to do something dangerous (for once) and she also isn't going to skin any buffalos cause OHMYGAWD THAT'S GROSS! Hazard says bitches don't do that shit, the boys do, she just has to cook the meat... and on second thought how about you don't do that either, since your cooking is hellish. Blaze feels contentment at not having to do anything.
As they approach the heard of buffalo everyone stops speaking, the boys strip down to damn near nothing, hop on fresh ponies and THEY'RE OFF! There a few paragraph of lavish hunting strategies and movements that I won't bore you with and when the dust settles, Blaze finds Hazard slicing up his fresh buffalo kill. She spends some time watching the "grace and strength" of his hands (QUESTION: HOW CAN SHE SEE HIS HANDS? SHOULDN'T THEY BE COVERED IN BLOOD AND GOO FROM THE DEAD BEAST HE IS ELBOW DEEP IN?) and tells Hazard she is never going back to Boston society. Hazard doesn't respond, so Blaze says it again. Hazard reminds her of the NUMEROUS OBSTACLES in her way (her father, her mother, Fancy Yancy, all of western society and breeding...) but Blaze just wants to know if Hazard wants her to stay. Hazard says it's not about what I want, it's about what's good for my people. Blaze: But what if you're people weren't here and all those other things you listed went away? Hazard: But my people are here and those things do exist. Blaze: Yes, but what if they DIDN'T. Hazard: In that case, of course I want you to stay with me. Blaze: EVERYTHING WILL WORK OUT FINE BECAUSE I SAY SO. Hazard: Kiss me with abandon and let us roll around in the carcass covered grass like puppies! And they do. (FUCKING GROSS WHAT THEY HELL?!) (btw: the book talks nothing about gross, just fresh grass smell and roaming hands and so on and so forth OH GOD THIS BOOK IS SO REALISTIC!!) Blaze wants bouncy bouncy now but Hazard says he has to finish skinning his kill. Blaze says hurry up! Hazard complies.

Blaze: Chapter 24

Blaze and Hazard awake and camp is already in full swing. Hazard says they must go bathe, everyone else at camp already did at sunrise. Blaze says no (why does she have such an aversion to bathing? You figure she's a lay-dee, she'd be dying to wash all the DUST AND NAST AND OL WEST from her skin more often. Whatevs.) and Hazard says she must. Blaze says no and Hazard goes into a long list of reasons why she has to (We are CLEAN people, its CULTURALLY important to us, it makes my people feel more BELIEVABLE to the reader...) and accidentally slips and backasswardly tells Blaze that everyone in the camp believes her to be his wife. Blaze is all "I'm your wife and not your concubine because you LOVE ME?" Hazard says "Lets not talk about this now. Can't we just have a GOOD TIME?" Blaze hears Hazard's whining and feels to SORRY for him and his HARD LIFE. (Whaa.) Blaze simpers and says she will gladly be Hazard's wifey. Hazard carries her down to the river (in joy, not in anger. I can see where you would think that, but no. He's being CHIVALROUS.) So they fuck at the river and Blaze tells him he is a good lay and has anyone ever told you that before? Hazard asks if she wants the truth or something that sounds good. She goes for what sounds good and they wrestle like puppies and fuck again. After the lay Hazard asks if Blaze is hungry, he'll have lunch brought down to the river. Blaze asks if everyone knows where they are and what they are doing. Hazard says "duh. How else do you think nobody else came around?" (paraphrasing). Blaze is all shocked and embarrassed and Hazard re-wooes her by telling her she is the best thing to ever happen to him. They return to their tent where Indian bitches bring them food to eat. One Indian Bitch eyes Blaze and says nasty things to Hazard in their language and Hazard stares her down. Blaze is confused but is again comforted by Hazard's pillow talk. Hazard is worried though, b/c Indian Bitch warned him she was gonna come to him in the night (for sex.) Hazard doesn't want to do Indian Bitch since he has Blaze, but he worries that someone will try to slip under his covers at night cause thats A TOTALLY NORMAL PART OF NATIVE AMERICAN CULTURE. But I won't worry cause nothing will happen and there is NO REASON I should tell Blaze about ANY OF THIS because she would never understand. (PREDICTION: THIS COMES BACK AND BITES HAZARD IN THE ASS.) Blaze and Hazard talk and Hazard bitches about living his HARD LIFE and how CLOSE TO DEATH everything he holds dear is. And then they fuck again.
A little while later a group of Indian woman come to the teepee. They're here to help Blaze with her new native wardrobe. Blaze doesn't want someone who has fucked Hazard to see her naked, so Hazard sends everyone away except for one old woman. Blaze still doesn't want to get naked in front of someone she doesn't know but Hazard coos at her and she crumples like a pile of laundry. Her fiery spirit is just so damn FIREY! Blaze tries on the dresses while her and Hazard eye fuck for a few paragraphs (peach-gold skin, hips, boobs, blah, blah, blah) until a dress comes up with a LOW NECKLINE. Blaze likes it, Hazard doesn't, they tussle, and Blaze shuts him down. Hazard apologizes but then tells the old woman to not bring the dress back (in the native tongue, of course). The old woman observes this interaction with millions of years of experience and is impressed with Blaze's courage and tenacity. She wonders what a baby born of these two people will be like CAUSE THE WHITE BITCH IS PREGNANT YO! (Oh Sweet Jesus NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooo).
Late that night Hazard asks a well fucked Blaze if she is happy at the summer hunt. Blaze purrs (gag). Hazard asks if she wants to come buffalo hunting tomorrow? Blaze asks if other woman are going, and if so yes, but otherwise, yes. Blaze asks if she can kiss Hazard in public, which Hazard says yes, but within reason. Blaze tells him she is going to ignore everything he says... ever. Hazard laughs and fucks her yet again.
